About this kit

6-Inch Aluminum-Knuckle Lift Kit with M1 Shocks, fitment-checked

Rough Country 22740 is a 6-inch lift kit built around an aluminum control arm knuckle, an M1 loaded strut pair, and an M1 monotube shock pair, plus a high-clearance crossmember box. It covers 2014-2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD, 2019 Silverado 1500 LD 4WD, and GMC Sierra 1500 4WD trucks. Denali, Denali Ultimate, and eAssist models are excluded.

The aluminum knuckle is what sets this 6-inch lift kit for 2014-2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 4WD, 2019 Silverado 1500 LD 4WD, and 2014-2018 GMC Sierra 1500 4WD apart: check whether your stock control arms are cast aluminum, cast steel, or stamped steel before you order. M1 loaded struts handle the front, an M1 monotube pair the rear. Cutting and drilling are part of the work, and a front differential mass damper has to come out for differential-lowering clearance. Factory 20-inch wheels can be retained with a 0.25 in wheel spacer, SKU 1065.
